November 1996 (continued):
After after my radio talent seminar in Vienna, The next day was devoted solely to travel. There are no direct flights between Vienna and Helsinki, so I flew first to Copenhagen and then caught another flight to Finland.
I was met at the airport by Agneta Mallén, who drove me to my hotel.
During check-in, the front desk clerk started to give me electrical adaptor that, apparently, they had been told I had to have. It was obvious that someone from my host, YLE, had made a big deal about this, due to the problems I had experienced there during my previous visit.
Suddenly the desk clerk looked at me again and asked, “Were you here about six months ago?”
She still remembered the American who had all that trouble connecting his computer all those months ago.
The next day was a fairly typical workday for me. I conducted Building A Winning Morning Show for YLE in morning and How To Motivate & Critique Air Talent in the afternoon.
As soon as we finished, I immediately climbed into a taxi to the airport, flew to London, checked into a hotel just outside Heathrow airport, and went to sleep. The following day I checked out, went back to the airport, and flew back home to Los Angeles.
